I'll see your mom and dad next spring in Truk. Just confirmed with WDC today! I hear the mystery trip was to St. Lucia. Did you guys go?

I am jealous you are going to Truk. That was the ultimate trip. My parents are going also. I think Serena has two consecutive weeks set up but I don't know which one my parents are signed up for. Good to hear from you.

I've always wondered does diving deep kill your ears??

My ears hurt like hell when I just jump into the deep end of my pool

exactly. hold your nose and blow out

that forces more air behind your ear drum to equalize the pressure from the water. This has to be done every few feet or so. Next time you swim in a pool, try it. Don't worry, the air escapes as you ascend. Congestion can obviously make it much more difficult.

great photos - where is the body of water below with the sunset(?)! One of my books is called Shark Attack from my spearfishing (Hawaiin Sling) days. My first watersports were on Thompson Creek in Chesterfield. Ocean Drive, Charleston and Lake Hartwell.

Well, you have had a lots of responses, but I would like to say that the photo with the sunset or sunrise looks like a shot from a diving club at Normans' Cay in Bahamas that got famous in movie "Blow" about when it was controlled by cocaine lord from Columbia. I am glad the DEA got that beautiful island back for us.

More great pbotos, but no, those are more like from St. Lucia, not Bahamas - more tropical! I spent a good bit of time in St. Lucia, but prefer the diving in Bahamas, Grand Turk, Provo........lot more seafood - lobster, grouper, etc. the "Far Out Islands" and the natives are alot more friendly...
